Each publication discusses a significant element in the environmental theory which now represents an important aspect of sustainable living. The latest volume, "Global Ecological Politics", examines the range of environmental campaigns that are occurring across the planet. It showcases a selection of case studies on grassroots initiatives and activism in areas such as green economic alternatives, regional activism in defence of communities, alternative or utopian communities, green politics and ecotourism. This extensive array of ecological participation demonstrates that viable green alternatives are available in this current era of legitimation crisis across the formal political and economic sectors. "Global Ecological Politics" presents an important collection of articles for researchers, lecturers and academics in the socio-economic and political sector and is essential reading for those involved in all areas of environmentalism. 7aPolitical SciencexPublic PolicyxEnvironmental Policy.2bisacsh 7aNaturexEnvironmental Conservation & Protection.2bisacsh 7aEnvironmentalist thought & ideology.2bicssc 7aEnvironmentalist, conservationist & Green organizations.2bicssc 0aEnvironmentalism.1 aLeonard, Liam.1 aBarry, John,d1966-1 z9781849507486 0aAdvances in ecopolitics ;vv. 5.40uhttp://www.emeraldinsight.com/2041-806X/5 1SS2010 c222814d222814
